2-The Hoop
Dick has been a good boy
All his work is done
Now he is at play with his hoop
As he runs he strikes it with the stick in his hand
Look how fast he makes it go along the road
After a long run he will go home to his tea

3-Knife And Fork
Henry has had a nice gift from his aunt
What do you think it is
It is a pretty knife and fork
The fork has three prongs
The knife has a sharp edge
Henry will soon be a big boy
He must learn how to hold his knife and fork when he eats his food

4-The Bird's Nest
Here is a bird's nest on the branch of a tree.
It is almost hid by the leaves.
The nest is made of straw and little sticks.
Look in and tell me what you see.
I see three eggs.
The bird is away for food; but it will soon come back.
See!
There it comes!
It flies back to the nest.
Now it sits on the eggs.
There will soon be young birds in the nest.
Some day we may come to see them.
Lucy and James went every day to see them, till the little birds were able to fly.
